Windows' cmd.exe prefers wrapping in % (e.g. %GOOS%), and @RobDolinMS has asked for the POSIX $ to be removed (#477). In this case, I think the context is sufficient that we can just use the variable name instead of Rob's recommended “for the environment variable FOO”.

This commit replaces everything turned up by git grep '\$' *.md.

Fixes #477.
